position and interfere with the pedals
or impair safe operation of your ve-
hicle in other ways.
WARNING!
Pedals that cannot move freely can
cause loss of vehicle control and
increase the risk of serious personal
injury.
Always make sure that floor matsare properly attached to the floor
mat fasteners.
Never place or install floor mats or other floor coverings in the ve-
hicle that cannot be properly se-
cured to prevent them from mov-
ing and interfering with the
pedals or the ability to control the
vehicle.
Never put floor mats or other floor coverings on top of already
installed floor mats. Additional
floor mats and other coverings
will reduce the size of the pedal
area and interfere with the ped-
als.
(Continued)
WARNING!(Continued)
Check mounting of mats on aregular basis. Always properly re-
install and secure floor mats that
have been removed for cleaning.
Always make sure that objects cannot fall into the driver foot-
well while the vehicle is moving.
Objects can become trapped un-
der the brake pedal and accelera-
tor pedal causing a loss of vehicle
control.
If required, mounting posts must be properly installed, if not
equipped from the factory. Fail-
ure to properly follow floor mat in-
stallation or mounting can cause
interference with the brake pedal
and accelerator pedal operation
causing loss of control of the ve-
hicle.
PERIODIC SAFETY
CHECKS YOU SHOULD
MAKE OUTSIDE THE
VEHICLE
Tires
Examine tires for excessive tread wear
and uneven wear patterns. Check for
stones, nails, glass, or other objects
lodged in the tread or sidewall. In-
spect the tread for cuts and cracks.
Inspect sidewalls for cuts, cracks and
bulges. Check the wheel nuts for
tightness. Check the tires (including
spare) for proper cold inflation pres-
sure.
Lights
Have someone observe the operation
of brake lights and exterior lights
while you work the controls. Check
turn signal and high beam indicator
lights on the instrument panel.
Door Latches
Check for positive closing, latching,
and locking.

HEADLIGHTS ON WITH
WIPERS (Available With
Automatic Headlights Only)
When this feature is active, the head-
lights will turn on approximately 10
seconds after the wipers are turned on
if the headlight switch is placed in the
AUTO position. In addition, the head-
lights will turn off when the wipers are
turned off if they were turned on by
this feature.
NOTE: The Headlights On with
Wipers feature can be turned on or
off using the Uconnect® System,
refer to “Uconnect® Settings” in
“Understanding Your Instrument
Panel” for further information.
HEADLIGHT TIME DELAY
This feature provides the safety of
headlight illumination for up to 90
seconds (programmable) when leav-
ing your vehicle in an unlit area.
To activate the delay feature, place
the ignition in the OFF position while
the headlights are still on. Then, turn
off the headlights within 45 seconds.The delay interval begins when the
headlight switch is turned off.
If you turn the headlights or parking
lights on, or place the ignition in ACC
or RUN, the system will cancel the
delay.
If you turn the headlights off before
the ignition, they will turn off in the
normal manner.
NOTE:
The lights must be turned off
within 45 seconds of placing the
ignition in the OFF position to
activate this feature.
The headlight delay time is pro- grammable using the
Uconnect® System, refer to
“Uconnect® Settings” in “Un-
derstanding Your Instrument
Panel” for further information.
AUTOMATIC HIGH BEAM
(for versions/markets,
where provided)
The Automatic High Beam system
provides increased forward lighting at night by automating high beam con-
trol through the use of a digital cam-
era mounted on the inside rearview
mirror. This camera detects vehicle
specific light and automatically
switches from high beams to low
beams until the approaching vehicle
is out of view.
NOTE:
The Automatic High Beam sys-
tem can be turned on or off using
the Uconnect® System, refer to
“Uconnect® Settings” in “Un-
derstanding Your Instrument
Panel” for further information.
Broken, muddy, or obstructed headlights and taillights of ve-
hicles in the field of view will
cause the high beams to remain
on longer and not automatically
switch to low beams until you
are closer to the approaching ve-
hicle. Also, dirt, film, and other
obstructions on the windshield
or camera lens will cause the
system to function improperly.
113
If the windshield or Automatic High
Beam mirror is replaced, the Auto-
matic High Beam mirror must be re-
aimed to ensure proper performance.
See your local authorized dealer.
To Activate
1. Turn the headlight switch to the
AUTO headlight position.
2. Push the multifunction lever away
from you (toward front of vehicle) to
engage the high beam mode.
NOTE: This system will not acti-
vate until the vehicle is at or above
32 km/h.
To Deactivate
1. Pull the multifunction lever to-
ward you (or rearward in car) to
manually deactivate the system (nor-
mal operation of low beams).
2. Push back on the multifunction
lever once again to reactivate the sys-
tem.DAYTIME RUNNING
LIGHTS (for versions/
markets, where provided)
DRLs come ON when the vehicle is
running and shifted out of park, the
headlights are OFF and the parking
brake is OFF. The headlight switch
must be used for normal nighttime
driving. If a turn signal is activated,
the DRL lamp on the same side of the
vehicle will turn off for the duration of
the turn signal activation. Once the
turn signal is no longer active, the
DRL lamp will illuminate.
NOTE: Depending on your area's
regulations, DRLs may be able to
be turned on and off. The DRLs
can be turned on and off using the
Uconnect® System, refer to
“Uconnect® Settings” in “Under-
standing Your Instrument Panel”
for further information.
ADAPTIVE BI-XENON
HIGH INTENSITY
DISCHARGE HEADLIGHTS
This system automatically swivels the
headlight beam pattern horizontallyto provide increased illumination in
the direction the vehicle is steering.
NOTE:
Each time the Adaptive Head-
light System is turned on, the
headlights will initialize by per-
forming a brief sequence of rota-
tions.
The Adaptive Headlight System is active only when the vehicle is
moving forward.
The Adaptive Headlight System
can be turned On or Off using the
Uconnect® System, refer to
“Uconnect® Settings” in “Under-
standing Your Instrument Panel”
for further information.

3. The reconfigurable telltales sec-
tion.
The main display area will normally
display the main menu or the screens
of a selected feature of the main
menu. The main display area also dis-
plays "pop up" messages that consist
of approximately 60 possible warning
or information messages. These pop
up messages fall into several catego-
ries:
Five Second Stored Messages
When the appropriate conditions oc-
cur, this type of message takes control
of the main display area for five sec-
onds and then returns to the previous
screen. Most of the messages of this
type are then stored (as long as the
condition that activated it remains ac-
tive) and can be reviewed from the
"Messages" main menu item. As long
as there is a stored message, an "i"
will be displayed in the EVIC's
compass/outside temp line. Examples
of this message type are "Right Front
Turn Signal Lamp Out" and "Low
Tire Pressure". Unstored Messages
This message type is displayed indefi-
nitely or until the condition that acti-
vated the message is cleared. Ex-
amples of this message type are "Turn
Signal On" (if a turn signal is left on)
and "Lights On" (if driver leaves the
vehicle).
Unstored Messages Until RUN
This message type is displayed until
the ignition is in the RUN state. An
example of this message type is "Press
Brake Pedal and Push Button to
Start".
Five Second Unstored Messages
When the appropriate conditions oc-
cur, this type of message takes control
of the main display area for five sec-
onds and then returns to the previous
screen. Examples of this message type
are "Memory System Unavailable -
Not in Park" and "Automatic High
Beams On".
